Benefits of Using a Wall-Mounted Wine Rack
Wall-mounted wine racks are distinctive in the way that they do not require additional space for storage.
1. Saving Space
Its no secret that many people lack the ample room needed for storing wines. This also cuts down on the total amount of floor space available. When you want to free up an area in your kitchen, dining room, or den, consider utilizing vertical rather than horizontal space by hanging wine bottles on brackets. Put away those box racks and get creative!
2. Protection from Temperature Changes
Wine bottles require a constant temperature to maintain their flavor profiles as well as their general integrity. When you place your wine rack on the wall, it’s isolated from hot or cold spots caused by heating and cooling vents which makes the temperature much more consistent. Wood can expand or contract depending on its surrounding climate leading to potentially harmful consequences for your favorite vintages.
3. Ease of Viewing and Accessibility
If you’re like most people, you probably have dozens of bottles stored away. It can take quite some time to find just the right one even though they are stored together. When you install your wine rack on the wall, finding the right bottle will be simple and effortless! No more digging through boxes or pushing aside bottles to see what’s hiding in the back of a large cellar area.
4. Creativity Opportunities
Creating your own wall-mounted wine rack does not have to be expensive! Check out these great DIY projects that can help save space, protect your bottles and offer ease of viewing for your collection. Keep in mind that it’s important to store all wines upside down to maintain their corks and ensure a longer lifespan. So, your bottles will be right-side-up when you take them off the wall.
5. Bottle Security
When a rack is on the floor or in a corner, people can easily sneak up to it and access your bottles without being seen. However, when you hang it on the wall, there’s no way for an intruder to get near it! The high placement makes it impossible for someone to quietly approach the area without being noticed.
